Yeah, one of the real classics. Alex Chilton wasn't even 17 years old when he sang this song.

Two minutes, pop-rock perfection, no bull added.

.What kind of guitar is that guy playing on the right - the white one? It looks kind of like a Flying V. I can only see the headstock of the one to his right, but it looks like a Mostite. Note the Vox Super-Beatles

Zombie audience???

@KyBoy2999 see "the wrecking crew" about the studio band from LA that recorded most if not all of the west coast AM radio rock music. the crew included guitarist glen campbell, keyboardist leon russell, bassist carol kaye and others.

Thanks for posting. The live performance shows a functioning band, playing in a less-than-ideal setting and not hiding behind any effects.

@thew The Upbeat clip is most likely from 1969, because they do one of their 1969 hits too on that performance.

no wonder the audience is asleep, these guys are terrible...back up singing is pathetic how in hell did I ever like this song...maybe it was the recorded side of the song cause these dudes suck live....

@KyBoy2999 They had the studio maffia on their recordings. The group, except for the wonderful voice of Alex Chilton. was just a vehicle for songwriters and producers.

That's a pretty bored looking audience. Did someone spike their drinks with novacaine?
